As a Star Trek fan, the table at the end of your article is interesting.
The whole plot of "Star Trek the Motion Picture" was that Voyager had reached a planet populated by machines & had been converted into a semi-sentient super satellite & sent back to Earth, on a mission to find its creator - all in a couple of hundred years! When in reality, in a couple of hundred years, Voyager will still be (cosmologically speaking) in our back yard.
I suppose that it just goes to prove that you don't have to pass a test to have an artistic licensesmiley - smiley
